Lupus-like Symptoms
Check with your doctor or pharmacist; you may also want too google the term "cellcept." just be careful of how much you read and how much garbage there is...And the "experts" that talk about it.

I believe that lupron can cause some lupus-like symptoms or lupus...Strange but for people with lupus it is given to them to help "keep the ovaries" if they undergo chemo.

I opted not to have the lupron, and I have had chemo 4x yearly; this march is the so-called "last session."

hope it helps.
